How To Include Images In Your Blog Posts Without Direct Upload From Your Computer/Mobile









Trying to upload images from my phone to my blog posts was actually difficult for me as I always had this error stuff.
At times I wouldn't just see any error, but the upload form wont show up.
Until I found how to insert photos in my posts without having to upload them directly from my phone.

What Do You Need?
The things you need are:
1. The photo you want to upload saved in your phone/computer.
2. A little knowledge about HTML or rather the HTML code for image
3. And of course a FREE online image hosting site.

With step 1 in place, you can look for a FREE image hosting site by doing a random search on Google, but I'll advise you use the one I recommend, which is
PostImage - www.postimage.com
Log on to the site (http://postimage.com) and create an account free of charge. Then you can upload your image from your phone there.
It's easy and fast, and also well categorized as you can create as much directories as you want.

Also you have options were you choose the size of the image. Select your desired size, favourably the size for websites and emails.
After uploading your image, you'd be shown many boxes with different links to copy, simply copy the link in the SECOND box!
That's the one you need. The link should end in jpg, or png
You need to use a browser like UC, where you have the chance of editing items copied to the Clipboard. Anyway you can find a place or a way to edit the copied link (you can do that after pasting it in the post you want to publish on your blog).

Now, you need to introduce the HTML image code that will enable that link to be transformed to an image, and the HTML code for image is:

<img src="" />
And the image link copied goes in between the two quotation marks ("").

Let's say for instance the link of the image you copied from postimage.com is
http://hostname.com/imagename.jpg
Your complete HTML code will now look like this:
<img src="http://hostname.com/imagename.jpg" />
I hope it was clear enough?
Are you confused? Then let's know with the comment section.
Tech guru that have a better and easier way than this, please do let us know too.

Thanks.

Enjoy.

How to change to your desired font on Tecno wx3p

The other time I did something on "How to locate your whatsapp statuses on your phone's file manager" and a friend drew my attention to an app that automatically reads from this file and shows your status files on launching the app, I think it was called "Status Saver". So you can install the app and save yourself the seeming stress of locating it from the file manager, though I don't see that as a stress actually. Today I've come up with something pretty new. Yea, late last year I bought this phone Tecno wx3p, and though it has issues with storage, SD card Ejecting and stuffs, I've just found a way to walk around those faults as we wait for Tecno to release a new update to fix them. I also discovered that on this phone's setting there's no feature as changing font to style your phone. Now we are going to talk about this today. You can actually change your fonts on tecno wx3 pro as long as you are using the default hiOs launcher...

CSC211: Classification Of Computers

Written by by Dinesh Thakur Computers differ based on their data processing abilities. They are classified according to purpose, data handling and functionality. According to purpose Computers are either general purpose or specific purpose. General purpose computers are designed to perform a range of tasks. They have the ability to store numerous programs, but lack in speed and efficiency. Specific purpose computers are designed to handle a specific problem or to perform a specific task. A set of instructions is built into the machine. According to data handling, Computers are analog, digital or hybrid. Analog computers work on the principle of measuring, in which the measurements obtained are translated into data. Modern analog computers usually employ electrical parameters, such as voltages, resistances or currents, to represent the quantities being manipulated. Such computers do not deal directly with the numbers. They measure continuous physical magnitudes. Dig...

Life Happened (My First Crush)

Image by Mescopaul's Blog How we see life differently at every stage in life. What we call love back then turned out to be nothing than an attraction or just as many call it a crush. That’s the exact word, “crush.” You admire them from afar and when they come close you “take to your heels” – not literally though. And so I had a crush back then when I was in SS2. She was my height, fair and very lively. No need to tell you, you can guess she was a drop dead beauty. If you’ve never been in “love”, don’t judge me right now. At that time I was in love, at least “at that time.” We moved into the area in some good parts of Lagos, Nigeria. She lived at the house opposite mine. The fence in my compound wasn’t that high, so I always stood on the front pavement or by the side of the house and stare at each other for some time saying nothing and then we just run off when the butterflies starts dancing in our stomach. No doubt, she had a crush on me too. We were two novices in ...
